Case Study | Pilot Projects at Two UK Airports Demonstrate Successful PFAS Remediation
This case study reviews two airport sites in the United Kingdom where the groundwater was contaminated with PFAS that had originated from the use of Aqueous Film Forming Foams (AFFF). An in situ approach using colloidal activated carbon permeable reactive barriers (PRB) combined with successful pilot study results allowed for regulatory permission for full-scale PlumeStop PRB installations on both sites. The PlumeStop PRB converts the contaminant flux zones in the treatment area into subsurface filters, which adsorb incoming contamination and stop offsite migration. This prevents risk to downgradient receptors, removes offsite liability from the site owner and allows Enhanced Natural Attenuation (ENA) of the downgradient PFAS plume.

Video | PlumeStop Used to Treat PFAS and Protect Community Resources at Martha’s Vineyard Airport
Martha’s Vineyard Airport is used by a significant number of general aviation aircraft with a high number flying in during the summer months. Over the years, as required by the FAA, the airport has conducted fire training exercises releasing AFFF fire-fighting foams in an area adjacent to the runway. Beginning in November 2018 as awareness and concern about PFAS in AFFF were increasing, Martha’s Vineyard Airport proactively identified an approach to contain AFFF testing solutions. As a result of the AFFF releases, the groundwater has been impacted with PFAS contaminants that are now being proactively treated by the airport. Tasked with evaluating available options to address the PFAS impacts, TetraTech worked with REGENESIS to develop a remedial design incorporating permeable reactive barriers emplaced in situ using PlumeStop colloidal activated carbon.

Waste Advantage Magazine Article | Sustainable PFAS Treatment for Groundwater at Landfills Now Possible
This article published in Waste Advantage discusses the importance of sustainable solutions to prevent human and environmental exposures to PFAS caused by landfills. PFAS-contaminated groundwater is a serious environmental issue facing most solid waste disposal facilities. Colloidal Activated Carbon (CAC) is a more sustainable and environmentally responsible approach. Installed CAC treatments are a fraction of the cost of other PFAS treatment methods, produce no greenhouse gas emissions or disposal wastes, and do not consume energy. CAC effectively coats the aquifer, forming a permeable sorptive barrier and filtering out PFAS as groundwater passes through the barrier.

Featured Video | How Colloidal Activated Carbon Eliminates PFAS Risk and Liability at a Low Cost
PlumeStop colloidal activated carbon utilizes activated carbon finely milled to <2µm (the size of a red blood cell) and suspended in a colloidal fluid to be injected under low pressure into the subsurface. The carbon particles disperse and diffuse, and then adhere to the surface of soil particles, converting contaminated aquifers into purifying filters. The PFAS contamination present in the groundwater is tightly adsorbed onto the PlumeStop in the subsurface, removing it from the groundwater and eliminating the risk to downgradient receptors.

Alameda Post Article – Navy to Lock Down PFAS in Groundwater with Carbon
This article published in the Alameda Post discusses the Navy’s use of injecting colloidal activated carbon (CAC), commercially sold as PlumeStop, into the subsurface to prevent PFAS contaminant migration. The goal of the project is to prevent the movement of PFAS into the Oakland Estuary. The approach using CAC subsurface injection was chosen as a low-cost alternative to pump-and-treat systems. The sustainable use of CAC turns the aquifer into a carbon filter and generates no PFAS waste. Once the carbon filter system is in place and performs as expected, the Navy will most likely utilize this method at other PFAS sites at Alameda Point.
Martha’s Vineyard Times Article – PFAS mitigation pilot program begins at M.V. Airport
This article published in the Martha’s Vineyard Times discusses the use of injecting colloidal activated carbon (CAC), commercially sold as PlumeStop, into the subsurface at Martha’s Vineyard Airport. Tetra Tech vice president Ron Myrick, whose firm handled the testing and mitigation of PFAS around the Martha’s Vineyard Airport area and completed the first stage of PFAS investigations in 2019, notified the commission during an August meeting about plans to use a remediation pilot program of “targeted PlumeStop application to assess mitigating further migration of PFAS” off the airport.

Featured Research Article – Top Groundwater Researchers Highlight 17 Commercial Field Projects Where PlumeStop Successfully Treats PFAS
Top groundwater researchers in the field of groundwater contaminant fate and transport recently published a REMEDIATION Journal article entitled Longevity of colloidal activated carbon for in situ PFAS remediation at AFFF-contaminated airport sites by Carey et al. The article highlights the application of PlumeStop colloidal activated carbon (CAC) at 17 commercial field projects to effectively treat PFAS in situ. The authors found that the vast majority of PFAS at airport sites are PFOS and PFHxS. This is noteworthy as these contaminants are preferentially sorbed to activated carbon when compared to the polyfluorinated carboxylic acid contaminants (i.e. PFOA) of similar chain length. The article also notes that the use of CAC in situ to treat PFAS is expected to have substantially greater treatment longevity compared to ex situ activated carbon use.

Video: Large Plume Cost-Effectively Remediated at Former Cannery Site
In this video environmental consulting and engineering firm Patriot Engineering collaborated with REGENESIS to effectively treat CVOCs at a former cannery site in Indiana. The goal at this site was to remediate the chlorinated solvents and eliminate risk, limiting offsite mitigation and bringing contaminants down to Indiana Department of Environmental Management tap water standards. Due to the large size of the plume, cost was a chief concern. After reviewing a range of treatment options, including pump and treat, air sparging with soil vapor extraction, and ISCO combined with ERD, Patriot selected a combined remedial approach from REGENESIS using PlumeStop, S-MicroZVI and 3DME in a sequence of permeable reactive barriers to strongly inhibit plume migration while enhancing biotic and abiotic degradation of the targeted contaminants.
